Depends, if you lift at 8 your bones will harden pre maturely stunting there growth, tho, on the other hand other believe lifting weight at 14+ increases height because it boost growth hormones. Makes sense because my one friend lifted to young and now he's like 5,4 but at the time he was the taller then every one else

Just wanted to say, it can but only by an inch and that's if you lift heavy weights above your head while you're growing

People really do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies - Buster
If it gives people an excuse not to exercise then sure people are going to use it lol
To clarify, there is no credible studies that show a correlation with weight lifting and an individual's height, it's bullshit.
